A Gift

[PB200021.JPG]
From two wonderful friends
Donna and Tag.
I won this wonderful book.
I just can't put it down. My mind  is filled with
 thoughts of what it must have been like. The
Civil War has always been of interest to me and this just is 

another element of it. A more intimate and human side so to speak.
Thank you for this treasure dear friend and of course Tag.
 You two are the real gift. A treasured friendship.

Embroidery Scissors Keep

     I have had fun making these sweet scissor keeps.
I don't know about you but I keep misplacing my tiny
embroidery scissors and I want to keep them protected too.
I made this one out of wool felt with a yellow cotton ling with a tiny 
flower print. I embroidered some of my favorite flowers on
it and surrounded it with glass beads. added some
sparkle ribbon and a tiny gold scissors charm.
I  made this one for my new ArtFire shop. I think 
this would make a great gift for a friend or yourself.
I even included scissors.
I also decided to make some cards. I was being very creative
as it was a rainy here and I couldn't be in the garden.
So I made silk ribbon and painted flower cards.


It is still raining ! Oh dear what's next!
I shall need a nap if this keeps up....
